What we need is a lot more common sense. Saw an investigative video the other day from an eastern state. An accountant called the investigative reporter to show him fraudulent tax returns filed by illegals claiming, are you ready for this, dependent children living in Mexico. You heard right, claiming dependent children living in Mexico! The accountant had notified the IRS but has heard nothing from them. The reporter contacted the state attorney general who said his office had sent letters to the IRS concerning this fraud. The IRS stated they were aware of the problem but could do nothing until Congress takes action. The estimate of these fradulent returns by illegals amounted to over $4.2 billion in refunds (not really refunds because the amount of tax paid in was only a fraction of what was refunded). Some of the refunds were in excess of $14,000.00. Feel better about the change now?

In fact, he carried the state of Texas with approximately
80 percent of the vote and won the national vote in a
landslide. His 4th term hastened the constitutional
amendment restricting the president to two terms.
Considering Greece and Italy, it will be far worse
in the USA because we are an armed nation.
